|
|
|
In this tutorial you use Nx to build a full-stack application out of common libraries using modern technologies.
|
|
|
|
{% callout type="check" title="Nx has first-class Next.js support" %}
|
|
Nx has first-class Next.js support, if you are looking to try or use it for your project. Read more about it [here](/next/overview)
|
|

|
|
|
{% callout type="note" title="Plugins for a rich developer experience" %}
|
|
In this tutorial, we use several Nx plugins to provide a rich developer experience that do most of the work for you. **All the plugins are optional.** [Read about using Nx Core without plugins](/getting-started/nx-core).

## Create a new workspace

|
|
|
Start by creating a new workspace.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx create-nx-workspace@latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You then receive the following prompts in your command line:
|
|

|
```bash
|
|
Workspace name (e.g., org name) myorg
|
|
What to create in the new workspace react
|
|
Application name todos

```

|
|
|
Two projects were added to the workspace:
|
|
|
|
- A React application
|
|
- E2E tests for the React application
|
|
|
|
## Serve the newly created application
|
|
|
|
Now that the application is set up, run it locally via:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx nx serve todos
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Note on the Nx CLI
|
|
|
|
If you prefer to run using a global installation of Nx, you can run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
nx serve todos
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Depending on how your dev env is set up, the command above might result in `Command 'nx' not found`.
|
|
|
|
To fix it, you can either install the `nx` cli globally by running:
|
|
|
|
{% tabs %}
|
|
{% tab label="yarn" %}
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yarn global add nx
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% /tab %}
|
|
{% tab label="npm" %}
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install -g nx
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% /tab %}
|
|
{% /tabs %}
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can run the local installation of Nx by prepending every command with `npx`:
|
|
|
|
{% tabs %}
|
|
{% tab label="yarn" %}
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yarn nx serve todos
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% /tab %}
|
|
{% tab label="npm" %}
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx nx serve todos
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% /tab %}
|
|
{% /tabs %}
|
|
|
